We really liked this tour, it's the perfect formula, the best of both worlds. Everything is well organized, you don't have to worry about anything, and you don't have to follow a group. The drivers, the guides and the representatives of Best Peru Tour were always there, on time, reliable and helpful. The program was quite loaded but there was enough time to see everything and enjoy it.
